I've got hundreds of straight porn related communities blocked which were a lot of repeating themes which could be combined in one! Sprinkled in are some about sports, furries, and anime porn. I like exploring All and blocking the communities that don't speak to me. My block list is going to be huge before long, at the rate duplicates are made.
Oh man I totally agree about the repeating themes. That's true even on the non-porn communities...especially during the gold rush to copy every single subreddit but none of the rules that made them unique
I don't really use Lemmy for porn but I don't mind seeing it since I have NSFW posts blurred. Aside from sexuality/kinks I'm not into, I block a lot of communities with users that post like 20 things at once.
Yeah, it's truly wild that the rules didn't transfer over (those were clearly written on each subreddit). The gold rush was poorly done, if it were better managed we'd have had a better default experience! Lemmy is one of several sources for unique erotic content (as gay NSFW is more scattered online). Often the only ones posting are the mods of said community so often I don't need to block them as it's all unique. I've almost fully curated my Lemmy experience now; since I've invested more time in this fediverse social platform.
